Wondering how people using invega are finding it. Especially wondering about side effects.

I was on Invega and did not like it. I felt more zombiefied on it than Abilify. As far as side effects, it had sexual side effects and I believe I started to have heart palpitations on it. Although I can’t be sure on the palpitations because it was never observed by doctors. It was just something that I thought I felt.

I’m on Invega. It’s the only drug that helps with my voices. I gained 45 kg on it. Have lost 25 kg in the last 6 months because of exercise and dieting. I think it’s important on Invega to have a plan on how you’re going to manage your weight.

I was on Invega and it got rid of my voices but I felt like I was in hell. Now that may have been because I was prescribed too much so… maybe it would have been better on a smaller dose idk

Invega goes great with SSRIs. On invega and escitalopram i was able to work full and part time and study at the same time in a foreign country. Invega is quite drowsing, the first time I took it I was always thinking about sleep and slept absurd amount of time. Sadly it stopped working and relapsed on it

I get Invega Sustenna injections and have been since 2019. They work great for me. I’m losing weight slowly by dieting and walking every day. I don’t notice any side effects.
